Rare in its character and spectacular setting

This 1798 historic, Federl Colonial is rare in its character and spectacular setting. Located on over five acres with towering 200 year old trees in tranquil Fredon Township,the panoramic views are absolutely breathtaking. Backing to parkland, this exquisite property also offers you a private, one acre pond with a tree lined path encircling its quite waters. Whether your desire is for peaceful meditation with meandering strolls overlooking the pond in the summer, napping in a boat with the water lapping at the sides after a long day of fishing or ice skating parties with winter barbeques and hot chocoloate, the setting and pond afford vacations all year long.
One step into this graceful home and you will breathe in the history and life from the past. The original millwork, graceful archways and stately ceilings offer a glimpse of how life 'was' in these historic homes, and still lives on. The charm of yesteryear is evidenced in the gracious entrance vestibule, the spacious Formal Living room (19x13) and Dining Room (19x18), the detailed, period mouldings and the beautiful brick fireplace in the Family Room. The bathrooms and kitchen have been updated to embrace modern conveniences and efficiency, yet still lend themselves to the character of this rare home. All three bedrooms are very large and lovely and one of the bedrooms offers an additional connected room perfect for an office or a reading room on those rainy days when you want to escape with a book and a cup of tea. The grandness of the rooms and ceilings beckon you to bring your stately, antique bedroom furnishings and take advantage of the surprisingly spacious closets.
Breezeway connects the back porch to one of several outbuildings. Gardening enthusiasts will enjoy the outbuildings on the property; whether for storing your tools or arranging your plants in their pots. The barn on the property offers endless possibilities; from animals to cars or a workshop.
